Do you think you can update the widget preview to reflect the changes you made because right now it shows a preview of the ICS clock.

Sorry, what I meant was...
1) pull your rom's DeskClock.apk from /system/app.
2) copy my png files to destination folder using 7-zip or other program.
3) then push back apk to /system/app...
Perfect! It's working, it's working!!

When I heard Tapatalk 2 is coming I hoped they finally will add support for Holo and make app look nice on ICS. Unfortunately I was wrong - Tapatalk still don't have Holo. Moreover they added even more ugly orange. Maybe it looks good on Gingerbread, but on ICS it is horrible. So I decided to fix the app myself and now it looks much better IMO.
This will be a tutorial how to theme Tapatalk to ICS (it is a paid app, so I can't post complete apk).
Warning: After modification you will lose the ability to auto update app from Play store - modded app must be resigned and your sign will be another than one from the original app. To update you will have to uninstall your modded app, install original one from Play Store and mod it again.
Warning 2: Theme is optimized for Tapatalk dark skin. There will be many bugs on light skin, so don't use it.
Before you start install the Full ICS mod from BlackDino: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24689619 It will enable most of the Holo theme in Tapatalk and other non-Holo apps.

Known bug:
- Letter color issue in threads and section menu (where you can subscribe, etc.). I don't know how to fix it.:
Let's start.
1. Download ICSTapatalk_Resources.zip from attachment. It contains all needed files. It includes apktool and signing tools. To run this tools you must have Java Development Kit. If you don't have it install it from here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u3-download-1501626.html
2. Pull framework-res.apk from your device (/system/framework), put it in apktool folder, open a command prompt window and run command:
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
3. Pull your Tapatalk apk from /data/app on your device and rename it to, for example "tapatalk.apk". Then put it in apktool folder.
4. Decompile the apk using command:
Code:
apktool d tapatalk.apk
5. After that put all files from the "res" folder in my zip to the corresponding folders in decompiled apk.
6. Compile apk using command:
Code:
apktool b tapatalk TapatalkICS.apk
7. Move the compiled apk to folder with signing tool and run command:
Code:
java -jar signapk.jar testkey.x509.pem testkey.pk8 TapatalkICS.apk TapatalkICS-signed.apk
8. Copy the signed apk to your device, uninstall original app, install your apk and enjoy the new appearance of Tapatalk.
Special thanks go to BlackDino for creating a full ICS theme. Great work.
Sir you have my eternal thanks. I really dislike the orange in this app.

Hi. Thank you for sharing, that looks great. Yet, I think the zip is corrupted.

He can't upload apk because tapatalk isn't free app.
the resources zip doesnt work
Can you re-up the res folder? The attached ZIP is corrupt. Thanks!
Yup, zip file is corrupt.
While we're waiting on this. I've been doing some playing around and a lot of the coloring can be solved by editing styles.xml and colors.xml .
As a side note, if you have tapatalk from the Amazon store, you will not be able to use this mod. Amazon DRM prevents any tampering.
I hope this is the right res.rar. Found it in another post.
For me it looks like a problem with attachments - it downloads only first 554 bytes. I tried to download attachment from another thread and had same problem. I don't have the zip - I accidentally deleted it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I did email the guy who makes the themes for the various themed tapatalk apps from the play store suggesting about making an ICS themed styled one and he said;
" Thank you for your email, and your support Stephen, we really appreciate it! When the next update is released, an ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) version will also be available. Keep your eyes open!
Regards,
Ryan Buckner Droid DOES!!"
So maybe its just easier to wait and get this in a legit way that can be updated through play store

Nah- this is odd. I've uploaded zillions of zip files without issue. I'll host it myself and see if it's just xda...
---------- Post added at 02:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------
Try this one, privately hosted:
That one worked. XDA must be having some server issues.
I see alot of ppl asking how to do this so I will give an example. It is quite easy, after you do it once, and the process will work for any images you wish to include in your theme. So lets get to it!
I only have windows computer, so that is what I will describe. You will need to install 7-zip http://www.7-zip.org/.
ok step 1 is downloading the theme you wish to edit, and the softkeys you wish to insert.
Step 2 ( extracting the theme)
Find the theme on your computer and right click and select 7-zip / Extract Files....
Do the same for your soft keys if they are zipped and locate the softkey images.
Step 3 (extracting com.android.systemui)
In the theme you are editing find the file labeled com.android.systemui and repeat the extraction by right clicking and selecting 7-zip / extract files...
step 4 ( inserting new images)
select all of the soft key images that you want to use and right click / copy they will be labeled eg. ic_sysbar_back.png and so on. there will be images for portrait and landscape, copy them all
Open the com.android folder that resulted from extracting com.android.systemui and there will be two files (res and theme_values.xml). Open res and find the drawable-hdpi and drawable_xhdpi folders and paste your softkey images in both. If the theme already contains softkey images it will ask if you want to overwrite, select yes to all.
Ok we are almost done. Now to repack the theme so it applies properly.
Step 5 (repack the theme) Warning: Do not zip the main folder you are trying to modify, this will result in the theme not applying your changes. Only zip the files/folders that are on the root of the main folder, this applies to all archived files Or in pain english, all the archived files in the theme, and the theme itself are archives of the contents of the extracted file, not the extracted file itself. Once you understand this, this is very easy.
Repack the com.android.systemui folder by selecting both the res and theme_values.xml and right clicking selecting 7-zip / add to archive. name the resulting file com.android.systemui.zip
Copy this zip back to the main theme folder where all the other com.android.xxxxx files are.
Delete the old com.android.systemui and extracted com.android folder
Now you can rename your new zip com.android.systemui you will get a warning about instability, go ahead and rename it anyways.
Your extracted theme should now look the way it did when you first extracted it.
You have to select all files in the theme and right click select 7-zip / add to archive.
You can go ahead and rename your theme at this point to whatever you want. You can even give it the .mtz extension. Click OK to zip.
Step 6 ( load your edited theme)
Now you can Cut/Paste your theme on to your phone. I typically put it in the download folder and test it from there before adding to MIUI/theme.
Remember that you may need to reboot for all the theme to apply!
Enjoy your new softkeys!

OK. It looks like those are xhdpi images. If your theme doesn't have a drawable_xhdpi folder you can create one and put them in there also. Let me know if that works.

If you didn't try that, maybe your are zipping the file or theme incorrectly. that will prevent it from applying, even though it says it did.
when zipping the com.android.systemui file you need to select the res and theme_values.xml and right click, 7zip add to archive. or since you are on a mac, maybe there is a comparable program to 7zip.
then when zipping the theme, you select all files on the root of the extracted theme folder and right click / add to archive
OK. I'll try that on the pc

I don't know of a way to change nav bar height using themes, I will see if |0xD34D| can maybe include a setting in the miui.us toolbox in the future.
I can't post the modified theme, because it is not my work, and I haven't asked permission to do so. I used BlackAndroidTheme as the base and just replaced the softkeys,and also some of the status bar images came from another theme I found. I will however send it to you via PM, for your use.
is possible to change status bar icons with rom toolbox , but not those of "system theme", i want to change those of other themes i have
Status Bar icons are in the SystemUI.apk in /system/app
changing icons in it is to modify this apk
I'm not sure if rom toolbox can do it or not, just to provide information

You can try and extract the systemUI.apk and then change the .png files with your own. And then zip the folder again and rename the file extension to .apk

These steps is using phone not pc. If using pc it will be more simple than this.
- Extract the systemUI.apk
- In there open res folder
- Go to drawable-hdpi
- In there find the png you want to change (like battery indicator / signal)
- Change the title of your wanted picture to the same name like in the systemUI
- Replace it
- zip the extracted systemUI
- rename the zip file into systemUI.apk
- replace the systemUI.apk from system/app
- set permissions to rw-r--r--
There you go. Do it at your own risk. Because if you forgot to set the permissions right you will ended up at systemUI force close all the time and you will need to flash your rom all the way again.
Remember to backup first.
For my tips
-with the costumized systemUI.apk copy it and put it into /system
- change the permissions to rw-r--r--
- then move it to /system/app then replace it.
That's how I do it. Good luck trying

The pc step almost the same. the pros is only that you don't need to extract the systemUI.apk just open the systemUI.apk with winrar and then just put your wanted png into the systemUI drawable-hdpi. Then put the file in your phone. Just like that.

Ok I followed the steps that you layed out. however, the name of the files of the icons I want are the same as the files that were already there. I did notice however, that the icons that i want are in 5% increments such as at 90% of battery the new icon will appear and at 89% the OLD icon will appear. both icon files are in the folder and both have same name

- Change the title of your wanted picture to the same name like in the systemUI
- Replace it
- zip the extracted systemUI
- rename the zip file into systemUI.apk
- replace the systemUI.apk from system/app
- set permissions to rw-r--r--
There you go. Do it at your own risk. Because if you forgot to set the permissions right you will ended up at systemUI force close all the time and you will need to flash your rom all the way again.
Remember to backup first.
For my tips
-with the costumized systemUI.apk copy it and put it into /system
- change the permissions to rw-r--r--
- then move it to /system/app then replace it.
That's how I do it. Good luck trying

[GUIDE][poll-added][No-PC]How to sign an apk file & make a flashable zip without PC
Hello, Many we need to sign apk file such as :-
[highlight]1)while converting amrv7 games to amrv6.[/highlight]
[highlight]2)after changing icon/modify any apk.[/highlight]
[highlight]3)after editing systemui.apk or framewprk-res.apk[/highlight]
[size=+2]And make a flashable zip for upload on Xda !![/size]
[highlight][size=+2]But many of us don't have pc(using tapatalk or Xda app) or may be we live out (such as me) and leave pc at home!![/size][/highlight]
So we can't sign apk with apksigner, apktool# or 7zip!!
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
As we know
[highlight][size=+3]NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER OF INVENTION.[/size][/highlight]
[size=+2]So, After some time I find a way to sign apk and make a flashable zip with our android without using pc or Mac!![/size]
''''''"""""""""'''''''"""""""""'''''''""""""""
[highlight]REQUIREMENTS:-[/highlight]
1)Root explorer (buy it on play store or u may have)
2)ZIPsigner (free)(download it from playstore)(or u can download directly by clicking here
3)any existing flashable zip (to make a flashable zip)
(u can download flashable sample zip by clicking here )[highlight][size=+1]*UPDATED(03/10/13)[/size][/highlight]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
[highlight][size=+2]Process:-[/size][/highlight]
[A] Sign an apk !!
------------------
1) At first extract ur newxyz.apk by root explorer that exacted apk will be in speedsoftware > extracted > newxyz .
2) change/modify ur apk as u want!!
3) after editing that apk zip that whole newxyz folder!! This time ur folder will be in speedsoftware > zip/archives
4) Now from here u will need the help of ZIPsigner.
Open ZIPsigner > choose input > give address ur ziped apk folder.

}
Then go to output and give address sdcard/signedapk.apk
5) choose key/mode as
Auto-testkey
6) press sign !!

Click to collapse
----------------------------***********------------------------
Flashable zip
-----------------
1) Download and extract the
sample.zip by root explorer.
Extracted folder (sample) will be in speedsoftware > extracted
2) Now open folder sample you should see two folders: one called "system" and one called "META-INF".
3) Let's start with the "system"
so open it:
In there, will go all files that what
you want to add or replace to the
system. So let's say for example that you want to replace the bootanimation.
4) Make a "New Floder" in sample> system > newfolder* ,name its as "media" *(make sure its aint in CAPS nor with in quotation marks)
5) now simply move the file in
their respective place:
the bootanimation.zip file should go in '/system/media' folder
**If you have more files to add, just follow the logic above; I'm sure you get the idea by now..
[size=+2]Hints[/size]
/system/app - all the system apps (SystemUI.apk etc)
/system/framework/ -framework-res.apk,android.policy.jar
/system/media - bootanimation.zip
/system/lib - libraries (*.so)
6) The other folder included in the folder sample(sample) is named "META-INF". So, [highlight]You may have to Replace the update-binary[/highlight] (if ur flashable zip is not working) inside the META-INF folder with an update-binary got from a zip that works in your phone.
7) if ur work with that folder complete then zip that folder.
8) now open ZIPsigner
-choose input
-Give address to ur zip u have created
-Give address to output where the flashable zip will be saved!!
(as explained above in SIGN APK)
9) Choose auto-testkey as key.
10) press Sign !!

Link updated in guide!! u can also download zipsigner by clicking here!!
In many cases there is no need to change updater-script !! It can only edited by notepad++ or high end text editor for android 3.0+ !!
But any one add his/her signature in updater-script then that signature will appear while flashing that zip!!
So its important to don't change it if u don't want another's signature in ur zip!!
Thanks 4 ur support !!
Editing update-script is really necessary for flashing zips like pushing/replacing apps in system and you can add there an auto-mount feature. Anyway, nice guide. :cheers:
Make app. signed apk through "BytecodeEditor.apk"

Its easy zarchiever allows us to add or remove files from a zip you can just edit a flashable zip that works on your phone to add the files you want and delete the ones you dont want. And then jst sign it using your method.

Here I will show You how to make Your personal lockring theme for ZipThemer.
Here is what You need:
- Paint.net
http://www.getpaint.net/download.html
- Gimp
http://www.gimp.org/
- Notepad++
http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v6.4.5.html
- Align Object Plugin for Paint.net
http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=3557
- 7ZIP
http://www.7-zip.org/download.html
These are the programs that fits my needs, are easy-to-use, complete but low-resources and free!... but!!! You can use everything You want! Gimp, Winzip, WinRar....etc etc
Here are the files we are going to modify (click to download template):
ic_lockscreen_handle_normal.png
ic_lockscreen_glowdot.png
Open these files in Paint.net or Gimp
We can change colors using Gimp and colorify option (is better)
http://docs.gimp.org/2.2/en/plug-in-colorify.html
or the Paint Bucket on paint.net:
... and this is the result...
You can also add Custom text or Images:
If You like other colors from other images, You can use color picker to obtain the hex code!
How to center images?????
Make sure to mantain .png format (to mantain trasparence) and auto-detect bit-depth when you will save Your works
Now we will drag&drop our creation inside the template I provided (\framework-res\res\drawable-xhdpi\)
Template
View attachment 2267961
Revert to stock (Jellybean) for ZipThemer
View attachment 2267962
Update: in KK lockring is contained in /system/priv-app/Keyguard.apk
Template for KK
View attachment KitKatLockring.zip
Revert to stock (KitKat) for ZipThemer
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0jkvsb9ea5iotx2/AABW-rOMvVghFK9STjMOGiKla/Stock.zip
You can rename the .zip as you want
Note: Inside the template, StockLockring_template.zip\StockLockring\, you will find an .xml
If you will drag&drop it outside the .zip, and open in Notepad++, it will looks like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<themename>[COLOR="Red"]StockLockring[/COLOR]</themename>
<themeversion>1.0</themeversion>
<author>[COLOR="red"]enricocid[/COLOR]</author>
<phone>[COLOR="red"]XHDPI[/COLOR]</phone>
<rom>[COLOR="red"]AOSP Rom[/COLOR]</rom>
<item>framework-res.apk</item>
<path>/system/framework/</path>
<description>[COLOR="Red"]LockRing[/COLOR]</description>
Here You can rename Your theme and add info
*Note: Lockring works with zipthemer!!! Zip themer app
How to use Zipthemer
*Note2: add more folders where you will put the final products, if You want to make Your personal lockrings for other resolution devices (drawable-hdpi for example)(make sure to use templates from your framework, to get the correct size of .png!! extract ic_lockscreen_handle_normal.png & ic_lockscreen_glowdots.png for rom framework in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-deviceresolution using 7zip!)

Ok, now I've been able to make a custom png file with Photoshop touch, it works quite well, but now I have a png file , and I ziped it with zarchiver and it gave me a "file name.PNG.zip" I tried to load it as a theme in zipthemer and it didn't worked, so I renamed it to only.zip and didn't worked also.

You should use the templare that contain .xml file with .png path.. You should also name png correctly... Can you attach your zip here so i can see how you did it?

Now I'm not home so I can't attach it, but do I need to rename the PNG that I created the same name as the one inside the drawr xhdpi folder?
Also do I need to replace the PNG inside the folder with mine or just copy mine inside it?
